Book Two: Old Ones is one of the most misunderstood books in Palladium Fantasy Second Edition. It looks like a monster book, but it isn’t. In this episode of The Summoner’s Circle Podcast, Vince digs into what the Old Ones really are, not bosses to be fought, but consequences that shape regions, magic, cults, and entire campaigns.
This episode focuses on how to use Old Ones without turning your game into hopeless cosmic doom. How their influence creeps into the world. How cults form around half-understood truths. How seals weaken, magic bends, and reality starts to feel wrong. Most importantly, how players can confront these threats indirectly through choices, containment, and survival, rather than combat.If you’ve ever flipped through Book Two and thought, “I’ll never use this,” this episode shows why it might be one of the most valuable tools on your shelf.
